Slide 1

Slide notes: The runtime record comprises a set of values that may be accessed by the Tags to derive their own values. With Web Writer and iesMobile there is no option for a pre run Screen, but there is still a way to define the default values for the runtime record.

Slide 5

Slide notes: That is not to say that each and every Web Writer page will use runtime values. As we can see in this example, there are no runtime values specified.

Slide 11

Slide notes: Whereas in this case, the page is an Income Statement, and Financial Report pages will usually use at least Period Names and Values, as we see in this example.

Slide 17

Slide notes: Web Writer offers a 'Pre Run Assist' option to insert the most common Names that are used.

 

 

 

Slide 18

Slide notes: There is an option to insert Names and default Values for Current Period settings, and also for inherited Period Settings.

 

 

 

Slide 19

Slide notes: Notice that the 'Pre Run Assist' will insert Period Names, and Values, and Field Numbers. The Names are the standard Names we use for Periods, although these Names are not forced, and the Values are currently set for 'Current Period Settings' as we will see in a moment. Notice that the Field Numbers that are inserted are in sync with Period fields usually used on DOCWRITESPRE, as with Doc Writer as well.

 

 

 

Slide 20

Slide notes: When we choose the 'inherit' option, the Names and Field Numbers will be the same, but the default Values will be different.

 

 

 

Slide 21

Slide notes: Inherited Period settings are often used for drilling. For example, on the Income Statement, the User may have already selected a Period choice, and when the User drills from the Report through to some Accounts, then the Period settings may be inherited by the next Page so that they are the same as for the original Page.

 

 

 

Slide 22

Slide notes: Now let us have a look at the Help, which explains all of this.

 

 

 

Slide 23

Slide notes: With Web Writer, as explained, we can use Names that are constructed from the alpha and number characters, and the underscore character.

 

 

 

 

Slide 24

Slide 25

Slide notes: We need to list which field numbers on the runtime record should be updated with the value derived for each listed Name.

Slide 28

Slide notes: The default Values to be used can be specified as shown here.

 

 

 

Slide 29

Slide notes: Period Names are the most common Names used, but any others are allowed.

 

 

 

Slide 30

Slide notes:

 

 

 

Slide 31

Slide notes: Runtime Names can be attached to dashboard tags, allowing the User to select a different Value and to re-submit the Page for re-calculation with the new or changed Value set.

Slide 35

Slide notes: The runtime record therefore, is constructed from the default Values as listed, when the Page is first calculated. After that, a User may possibly select some different Values and when the Page is submitted for re-calculation, then the new or changed Value set is used.
